Cross Section of Body and Sealants - General Safety Precaution

NOTE: Follow the sealer manufacturer's instructions and apply the sealer. Note these items:
  • Clean the areas to be sealed with wax and grease remover.
  • Wipe off any excess spot sealer with thinner. After the primer is sprayed, sealer will fill the area where the spot sealer was wiped off.
  • When applying sealant to the engine compartment, the door opening, and the tailgate gutter, try to match the appearance of the factory sealer. Wipe off any excess sealer.
  • Apply sealer to any area that a replacement part will cover. Smooth the sealer with a brush if necessary.
